<p>Diggz - I thought AA would be right on this, but he must be studying for a final - or out celebrating that he is done!</p>
<p>CMU's mascot is the Tartan (plaid woolen fabric of Scottish origin) - a reference to Andrew Carnegie's Scottish homeland. In recent years it's been displayed as coat on a cute Scottie dog - I guess to make the mascot more appealing?? Fabric as a mascot - odd, no doubt....but at least they won't have any problems with the NCAA and its Native American nickname uproar!</p>
